my shih zhu also had this toliet train prob.we put the liquid on the news paper so she can pee there but she did next to it and not on it..very notti fella too...anything on the floor take..and when i noticed and call her name she cabut...we also teach cookie to do tricks but she paid no attention until when showed her the stick..her eyes perk up and suddenly everything we taught her she can do!the most gulible dog i ever known!

Joshua,phoebe looks cute...is it the black and white color? where did ur bro got her from? my family were looking for this type of color instead of the tri common color

wow ur dog really loves to eat....if i were to give her such a thing ; she will vomit back to me and be more caution of what i were to give the next time..

oh~ u got it from a house breeder in damansara right? i went there before...their pups are malaysian champion supposingly..and their dogs name are prada,gucc, channel etc.

u get what u pay for...and its a bomb to buy a shih tzu with cert champ breed.they can cost up to 1400 max...usual price would be 700 plus...u can call mka...they will hook u up with reputable breeders.i called them once and saw the breeder;crazy about shih tzu no doubts about that..they treat their dogs like their babies or even precious then their own babies!!!lol...

YEH I got my shih tzu already!!! brought one of the champ...Nicolas..suprisingly after much talking him and my dad.he decided to sell us one of his prize babies he was keeping for show dog:)

sure thing! when i get to find that damn wire to transfer the pics to the pc...been missing for a week...

Hiya there such a cute Xiao Zhu u have there!:) i have a shih zhu female named sheba, the most beautiful and smart queen found from the bible.and another one coming soon end of this month a male named solomon.the very wise king and the one that is fond of sheba!:) since sheba is a direct champion line b****;she has ability to learn thing very fast compared to my previous shih tzu.very brave unlike a toy dog.she is more like a guard dog and wont think twice of scolding someone for cheating her or provoke her.sometimes she grumble if someone purposely disturb her.she loves to bite~ so every morning ill make sure ill give a toy so she wont nibble onto me instead.shih tzu are so likeable.so cute and innocent.smart and mostly quiet and very affectionate and also busy body~ and the most greddy dog i have ever seen.few times she ate a treat the long stick without biting and swallow in whole; as the result will hiccup all the way....learned her lesson and do again after awhile..notti fella

hope that helps...i can give hands on advice when u need one...conclusion it takes paitence and time to train a pup where to relieve themself

my sheba is about 4 months old while the solomon will be almost 2 months when we are going to get from the breeder.He is one of the best shih tzu in malaysia ive seen.his breeder shows his dogs in mka and won last last match as overall best dog and breed and junior category~ will show u the pics perhaps this weekend!:)

ahahha if u can keep it at rm100 consider very very good...cause shih tzu is a pampered dog.was develop for the queen's pet. and they are demanding sometimes plus fussy on food

i recommend u keep hamster,gerbil or rabbit instead...they can be very good pets.rabbits suprisingly can be trained,play together, come when called, and can recognise its owner..

any recommendation of a good groomist? and how much are the charges? my pet shih tzu has not been groom properly yet so now we like to have a make over for her.im staying in usj

thanks jason

i went there once with my shih tzu and it turns out her hair is almost the same....only neater a bit...not much a makeover..i drop her at 1pm and only got her back at 7pm!!!on saturday....im not sure whether taht day too many dogs to give good close attention to the grooming or its her style of doing so....my dad lost confidence and now looking for another groomer

most of the time $ is spend on treats and grooming....ill say about rm200 and above...and if grooming every weekend that will be 80x4.ALOT of ppl give up on shih tzu because of this...

1)Malaysia Kennel Association....call them they got list of ppl breeding shih tzu (google them please to get their website)
2)microchip is a chip placed in the skin of the dog so can track who registered the dog in case it went missing
3)male or female no diff.some say female some say male.my personal experince female better; more attentive and caring...but also depends on the personality of dogs just like humans
4)price range with mka rm 800-1500 depends on quality /color /sex

hmm bleeding where the nails? the body? if nails to me its ok....cannot see... we malaysian never complain its the culture..sad through

gosh~~~ my dog knows how to bully me wherever its time to bathe; i gotta lock the door and bathe her...then comes the hard part combing while blowing her hair dry.she would whine and put her paws up moving up and down to block me from combing wherelse my sis or maid does that she wont dare to move how do u do that?

MY SHIH TZU IS NOT A SHIH TZU...dont know to explain....he i meant she....aih~~~ just say this la..her mom is a champ and her grandparents are champ.this shih tzu of all shih tzus i rear never outsmart the owner wherelse this is notti sly one bully the softhearted pet lover me~ wooo can jump and not afraid of anything.even bully bigger dogs also... lol but ill try crazymouse idea: fed treats while grooming cause she is gulible
